Young girls will walk down the pretend isle that they set up to go meet the love of her life at the end; most of the time, the love of her life is her teddy bear that she's loved for forever and a day. However, she does not realize that finding love and walking down the isle is that simple. She doesn't know that she will cry herself to sleep thinking about boys and scarfing down ice cream from her first broken heart. She doesn't realize that saying she loves her teddy bear isn't the same as loving her future boyfriend (or girlfriend). She doesn't think about these things when she's young, walking with toilet paper draped from her head as a veil. Kids have to imagine what love will feel like at a young age to only be let down at what it takes to find love when they grow up.
